Given the infamous 'running to the press and trashing us' clause, sadly I don't think this will help their cause. However, if you've been in review for 43 days, I guess there's nothing else you can do.
Can anyone say how long a typical Apple app review takes? Even ballpark. I just want to know if 43 days is unusually high or pretty normal for them. Seems high to me, but I've never submitted an app to Apple so...
It's normally ~10 days, with most of that time in the "Waiting for Review" state, and then just one day for the "In Review" state.
